An extraordinary account of resistance, courage and survival in Putin's Russia, from a Pulitzer Prize-winning dissident with a uniquely hopeful message.
Vladimir Kara-Murza has had a front-row seat on Russian history for a quarter of a century, both as witness and participant. He challenged Putin's party at the ballot box and saw firsthand how it stifles opponents. He rallied support on the streets of Moscow and in Western corridors of power. And he paid the price for his defiance: he saw his friends murdered, narrowly escaped two poisonings, and was convicted of "treason".
But Kara-Murza's hope for a democratic future in Russia remains undimmed. His vivid memoir of post-Soviet Russia is a tribute to resilience and bravery in the face of authoritarianism - and a reminder that no country is forever destined for unfreedom.
